    Abstract: This study aims to determine financial resilience, potential and ways to maintain the economy during the COVID-19 pandemic for the tourism industry in the city of Surabaya. This study uses qualitative methods with several tourist objects in the city of Surabaya. From the results of the study the economic decline experienced by the tourism industry in Surabaya was caused by a decrease in the number of visitors which resulted in difficulties in managing tourist attractions, existing facilities and decreased income

    Abstract: Short-term rental platforms, led by Airbnb, have disrupted the tourism accommodation industry over the last decade. This disruption has encouraged policy-makers to intervene. However, little is known about how effective such interventions are. This paper empirically evaluates the impact Bordeaux's regulation has had on short-term rental (STR) activity through both a differences-in-differences and a triple-difference design. We find that regulation has had a reductive effect of over 322 rented days per month per district on average. This equates to 43% of mean reservation days and over 28 thousand less nights spent per month in STRs across the city. This effect is persistent in peripheral areas of the city, with an average effect of 35% of monthly reservation days. However, the city's attempts to limit activity stemming from targeted (commercial) listings yields mixed results as non-targeted (home-sharing) listings also seem to have modified their behavior. Additionally, analysis in the periphery points paves the way for discussion about the effectiveness of one-size-fits-all STR policy design.

    Abstract: Since December 2019, the Covid-19 pandemic crisis has led to profound changes around the world with a lot of interdictions or constraints to travel outside one's own country. One of the major consequences has been the development of proximity tourism in outdoor spaces less conducive to the spread of the virus. From a study preceding this pandemic, this article seeks to better understand the experiences lived by domestic tourists when they visited protected natural parks in their country. Beyond the health risks, it analyses the dimensions and the influences of experiences lived in these parks by French domestic tourists (n = 500) using Pine and Gilmore's 4Es model (1999). From a literature on the tourism experiences for domestic tourists adapted to natural parks and a critical review on the use and validation of Oh et al.'s scale (2007) in tourism, a structural equation model and a nested SEM show the positive relationship between three dimensions of the 4Es on the arousal and memory outcomes. Theoretically and methodologically speaking, this study extends the 4Es model in the direction of low arousal and mundane experiences for domestic tourists in protected natural parks, and questions Oh, Fiore, and Jeoung (2007) scale through the number of items, the use of EFA and the removal of the aesthetics dimension. This research can help managers of protected natural parks adapt their domestic tourists' experience offer during health crisis by implementing specific marketing strategies for low arousal and mundane experiences with more outdoor activities and digital services.

    Abstract: An essential prerequisite for the implementation and field testing of visitor flow management solutions is the availability of objective, quantified and up-to-date data, ideally continuous throughout the year and over an hourly (or at least half-day) time-span. To date, however, there is still a lack of data available in barometric format, particularly for small island territories. By illustrating the case of a project to measure and qualify tourist and excursion visitor numbers on island territories, the research presented here demonstrates the contribution of a stakeholder theory approach to projects based on obtaining data on tourism.
    Abstract: Pour envisager la mise en place et les expérimentations terrains sur des solutions de gestion des flux de fréquentations, un préalable essentiel est de disposer de données objectivées, chiffrées et actualisées, et idéalement continues sur toute l'année et sur un spectre temporel horaire (ou a minima à la demi-journée) sur ces fréquentations. Pourtant, à ce jour, ces données disponibles sous un format barométrique font encore défaut, tout particulièrement sur les territoires insulaires de petites tailles. Par l'illustration du cas d'un projet de mesure et de qualification des fréquentations touristiques et excursionnistes sur des territoires insulaires, la recherche présentée ici permet de montrer les apports d'une approche par la théorie des parties prenantes pour les projets basés sur l'obtention de data sur le tourisme.
